 SIMCA : Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogy
In SIMCA, a PCA is performed on each class in the data set, and a sufficient number of principal components are retained to account for most of the variation within each class.
Finally, SIMCA is sensitive to the quality of the data used to generate the principal component models.
SIMCA can work with as few as 10 samples per class, and there is no restriction on the number of measurement variables, which is an important consideration, because the number of measurement variables often exceeds the number of samples in chemical studies.
